About Us

Gravicon designs and delivers modular plants that transform coal and coal heaps, gold, diamonds, chrome and manganese ores, lead and tin ores, iron ores, tantalum-niobium ores, vermiculite, barytes, dumps of ferromanganese and ferrochromium production, and tailings into revenue. Our solutions are fast to deploy, simple to operate, and proven worldwide – giving clients measurable results instead of promises.

Our Technology

Modular Beneficiation Complexe

Developed over 20 years, these systems combine gravity processing, modular design, and advanced automation to deliver fast deployment, low operating costs, and reliable performance across diverse minerals.

Gravity Jigging Technology

Through precise pulsation and screen motion, heavier particles settle while lighter fractions remain suspended, enabling efficient separation across a wide size range — without chemicals, with minimal energy consumption, and full process controllability.

Moving Sieve Separation Technology

The process is fully automated and computer-controlled 24/7, ensuring stable separation quality, higher throughput, and significantly reduced energy and water consumption — without operator intervention.

Our Journey

First Sludge Jig

1988

Development and implementation of the OMSH-5 jigging machine at the Donetsk coal plant for coarse sludge enrichment below 3 mm.

Diamond Separator Breakthrough

1990

Together with the Yakutniproalmaz institute, the SL-10 sticky separator was introduced at Aikhal GOK. Later upgraded to SL-10A, this equipment has been in use for 30+ years in diamond enrichment plants.

Movable Sieve Jig

1997

The OMPR jig with a movable sieve was launched at the Marganets GOK for manganese ores. It significantly improved beneficiation quality. Modernized versions are still operating at Marganets and Pokrov GOK today.

Terrikon Processing Pioneer

1999

First modular plant for coal waste dumps (terrikons) installed. Unlike simple screening, jigging reduced ash from 65–80% to below 40%, meeting new requirements of power plants. Since then, dozens of such complexes have been deployed across Donbas — jigging remains the most cost-effective method for terrikon enrichment.

Guinea Diamond Plant

2000

In Banankoro, Guinea, Gravicon engineers delivered a modular diamond plant. Despite the humid tropical jungle climate, installation and launch took only two months. The project was immediately successful, with diamond recovery confirmed at up to 100%.

Gravicon Brand Launched

2008

Gravicon was established as a standalone company, specializing in gravity-based mineral processing technologies under its own brand.

Smart Flotation Control

2015

Introduction of an advanced control system for MFU flotation machines, including reagent dosing, pulp level sensors, abrasive-resistant flow meters, and density measurement modules, delivering more precise and automated flotation control.

GRAVIPOD-EVO Innovation

2021

Launch of GRAVIPOD-EVO: a jig with a movable sieve and electronic drive. The design increased throughput per m² of screen area while drastically reducing energy and water use. For a 50 t/h plant, a recirculation tank of only 200–300 m³ is sufficient.
